This is a nice somewhat aged pu erh. The first few steps were kind of mushroomy, but later steeps were a bit fruity. It had a nice Amber color. The tea held up to many infusions, so I’d say the leaf quality was high. Not much astringency, for better or worse. It’s kind of expensive, $142 for 400g, I only bought a sample.

I have never ordered from Chawangshop before. Would you recommend them? It says you can only order a maximum of 10 samples. I also can’t see the EMS shipping option..

They are a reputable seller. Many of us order from them. The shipping is kind of expensive, though their teas are often quite cheap.

@tea123 they are reputable. Honza the shop owner works the EMS to your advantage. It is usually cheaper than the quote you get.

Thanks. It’s giving me two options for shipping: AIR and SAL. Where is EMS?

mrmopar

@tea123 that is the AIR option. I think it took one day from China and $ days at the USPS.

Thanks. I have now made my first order to Chawangshop. I ordered with SAL option. I later received an email asking for payment. The email had EMS shipping, which is slightly cheaper at $22 than the SAL option of $27.30.

Excellent! They have a funny way of ordering and payment, but it works. He is a great seller. What were the highlights of your order?

I ordered a selection of stuff. Some say gushu, and dating from 1990s to 2015. It looks like quite a selection. Some do not have a steepster reviews so I have picked them blindly. Anyway, I’ll decide whether they are any good :)
